1.06(12.25 + x) = 19.08
12.25 + x = 19.08/1.06 = 18
x = 18 - 12.25 = 5.75

Therefore, the cost of the cat food is $5.75

Mr. See weights his grades. Tests are worth 60%, quizzes are worth 25% and homework is 15%. Joey's test average is an 82, his qu
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

83.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Joey's current grade can be determined by weighting his scores with the weights given and adding the results

Tests = 0.6 x 82 = 49.2

Quizzes = 0.25 x 77 = 19.25

homework = 0.15 x 98 = 14.7

49.2 + 19.25 + 14.7 = 83.15

Answer:  The width is:  " 10 in. " .
________________________________________________
Explanation:
________________________________________________
Consider a "rectangular prism".
________________________________________________
The formula for the Volume of a rectangular prism:
________________________________________________
  
    V = L * w * h ; 
_________________________________________________
                 in which:
 
                     V = volume = 120 in.³ ;
                     L  = length  =  8 in.
                     w = width   =  ??
                     h = height  =  1.5 in.
____________________________________________
We want to solve for "w" (width) ;
____________________________________________
Given the formula:
____________________________________________
 
   V = L * w * h ; 
____________________________________________
Rewrite the formula; by dividing EACH SIDE of the equation by
   "(L * h)" ; to isolate "w" on one side of the equation;
                 and to solve for "w" ;
_____________________________________________
  →  V / (L * h) = ( L * w * h) / (L * h) ; 

to get:
_________________________________
     →  V / (L * h) =  w ; 

       ↔ w = V / (L * h) ;
_________________________________
Plug in our given values for "V", "L"; and "h"; to solve for "w" ; 
____________________________________________________
       → w = (120 in.³) / (8 in. * 1.5 in.) ;
    
       → w = (120 in.³) / (12 in.²) ;
 
       → w = (120/12) in. = 10 in.

The value of y varies directly with the value of x. When y = 15, x = 3. What is the value of x when y = 60?
Viefleur [7K]
The answer is B
because at first y was equal to 15 and x equaled to 3 the quotient of 15/3 = 5.
now the y is 60 so, 60/5 = 12
